Alex Fisher leads calls for Caley Thistle supporters to be their 12th man against Motherwell

WEDNESDAY’S goal hero Alex Fisher has urged Caley Thistle fans to turn out in their droves and be their 12th man against Motherwell tomorrow.

They need to win and hope Hamilton Accies drop points against Dundee, to leapfrog them into the final play-off place.

An escape that looked impossible a fortnight ago is now very do-able. Inverness are within touching distance of Accies, who have lost all four post-split fixtures.

The travelling support was in fine voice on Wednesday night and the club has made efforts to attract more along on Saturday, allowing under-16s in for free and permitting season-ticket holders to bring a friend for free.

All is set up for a bumper crowd, which Fisher hopes can be vital.

“It would be great if there was a big turnout on Saturday. It would be a 12th man,” said Fisher.

“It sounds like a cliche but it really does help.

“When you’re toiling towards the end and you here a ‘come on!’ from the supporters, it really does give you that extra push. I hope to see big numbers at the weekend.

“They were fantastic on Wednesday night and it was nice to give them an away victory, because they’ve had to wait a long time for one.”

Alex Fisher embraces fellow goalscorer Billy Mckay.

It is all set up for one of the most nervy finales to a Premiership season in recent memory.
